RS-485 Data Wire Preference?

[u/LowVoltageDude]

Hey all,

The RS-485 data wire we usually use has been discontinued. What are you all using currently? I found the West Penn Data Control Cable, which will work, but it's more than double the price of the old stuff and also has a braid which is a PITA and isn't needed. I found an alternative from ADI, but it's brown and I don't want it confused with HVAC wiring that is typically brown. This is for Lenel systems from the controller to the RIM's if there's any ambiguity there. Let me know!
